Remove the mutex serializing access to the cache.
Instead, queue up new requests on a bio_list if the driver is busy.
This improves sequential write performance by ca. 2%.

- Make the IOMMU flags used for mapping main memory into the GPU's I/O space
explicit, instead of relying on the default in the hypervisor,
- Add missing calls to lv1_gpu_context_iomap(..., CBE_IOPTE_M) to unmap the
memory during cleanup.

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.
We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.
But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.
->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.
rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.
Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
So, let's nuke it.
Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

Convert the PS3 Video RAM Storage Driver from an MTD driver to a plain block
device driver.
The ps3vram driver exposes unused video RAM on the PS3 as a block device
suitable for storage or swap. Fast data transfer is achieved using a local
cache in system RAM and DMA transfers via the GPU.
The new driver is ca. 50% faster for reading, and ca. 10% for writing.
